Interesting Facts

Lions can run at speeds over 30 mph, but only over short distances.

Lions are able to take down prey three times their size.

A lion's roar can be heard up to 5 miles away. Roaring is believed to have a territorial function and to help animals locate each other.

Lions live in large groups called prides. No other type of wild cat forms such large family groups. Members of a pride will greet each other with friendly gestures by rubbing their heads, or even their whole bodies, against each other in a manner similar to that of a domestic cat greeting its owner. Social grooming is also important in the pride.

A male lion's mane is somewhat of a status symbol. At a kill, the lion with the largest mane often eats first. If another male spots a large maned lion on the horizon, he will often keep his distance. Manes may also buffer the males from bites and slashes during fights. The mane starts to become visible around 2 years of age.
